no need to change it now. its in the tank. nissan says that it should never have to be replaced. of course, they also say that the spark plugs should last 100k.

what tranny do you have? the plugs should be fine, but i would personally have them replaced by the 60,000. the only thing you might need to have them do is a coolant flush and a tranny flush. you can do the air filter by yourself and the plugs most likely good. you could also do the pcv even though its probably good for 60k as well. if im forgetting anything big then someone let me know. i would just have those two things flushed if you dont want to do it yourself.
